Brian Kerr on comms showing zero awareness of the concept of phases when it comes to offside, for the disallowed 3rd goal.

Along similar lines. There were a whole host of offers across the bookies tonight for various player SoT multiples.

At this rate they'll all land.

Nico (3), Doue (2), Dembele, Mbappe all off the mark inside 35mins.

Great game. Lots of pace to it.

In the end just a few landed

Yamal & Mbappe SoT each @ evens
Doue 2+ SoT @ 5/1

Lotta shots on target

You'd really hope that was mostly guys with sizable wedges on Sinner locking in a win?

Huh?

Either way, somebody was backing it, and losing.

Yeah true, I don't care either way. If you're willing to bet 10 grand to win 100, good luck to ya.

But I'd be hoping fellas would have more sense? As in, most of the bets were just locking in wins.

For the people laying, yes.

For the people backing (it's an exchange, so there's two sides to every bet), they lost trying to make a 1% profit. There's no locking in going on for people backing those prices.

Was going to back Alcaraz when he was 2 sets down.
Paddy were offering 15/8 or something equally as miserable.
Thought it might be worth a 10er at 10s.
Didn't bother in the end.

Of course.

Don't know what I was thinking. Having never cashed in, I'd not given it much thought.

Obviously. Now let's never speak of this again.
